A Coach is a veteran house guest that acts as a mentor for new house guests. The Coaches were a part of the twist for Big Brother 14. Four returning house guests, Britney Haynes (BB12, fourth place), Dan Gheesling (BB10, winner), Janelle Pierzina (BB6/BB7, third place), and Mike Malin (BB2/BB7, eighth place and winner) returned and selected teams of three. The coach whose player wins Big Brother 14 won $100,000. In addition to strategizing and advising their players, coaches compete in a Coaches Competition weekly, with the winner granting immunity to one of their players. Coaches may not vote, be nominated, or compete in any other competition.
The coach twist ended when the coaches were given the opportunity to reset the game by pressing a big red button in the diary room, cancelling that night's eviction and putting the coaches into the game as players. The only coach to not press the button was Mike Boogie.
Dan Gheesling entered the Big Brother Canada 1 house for a few days to coach the remaining players in the game.
